?Ambrose POV
?
It hit me so hard, I sat on my study chair for a while and breathed heavily. I came here to read in the afternoon and maybe to get Haira off my mind for a while. When reading wasn’t working, I wanted to call her and pour out my mind but I couldn’t summon the courage to. I am just scared she would become over pampered like Hanna. I decided to hide my love for her and refused calling. During that time, she called and I angrily got my phone on the silent mode.
Now, I have to apologize to her.

“Baby” I called out immediately I stepped into the room, she stood in front of the dressing mirror unclad. She quickly wrapped her towel around her body once she heard my voice.

“What’s that?” I frowned at her trying to hide her body from my view.
I moved up to her, she was going to sit on the chair in front of the mirror when I pulled the towel violently revealing her smooth skin and firm boobs. She hissed and finally sat on the chair. I watch her cleaned her face and applied her night lotion. Wrapping the towel around my neck, I leaned over her neck and whispered “Am sorry”.
She ignored and refused to say a word, I kissed her neck and yet she won’t say a thing. I waited in that position until she was done applying her lotion. She stood up and headed for her pyjamas, the one she already arranged on the bed. Pulling up her waist, I turned her around and s----d her lips with my eyes shut. She didn’t reciprocate, she can be very stubborn.

“I said I am sorry now” I said as I kissed her forehead.
“Same thing you would have said if i was shot, then in few weeks get married to the mistress that you have been sneaking out to call” She said yanking my hand off her waist and getting into her pyjamas.
My eyes bulged, Jerry has been calling with different numbers all along, I use to sneak out of the room to receive her calls mostly at night. I never knew my wife was watching.
“You suddenly became dump? You thought i never knew you have a mistress? What in God’s name haven’t I given you?” She barked.

“Sex” I responded. Not that i have had extra marital sex since we wedded but I thought this was a good opportunity to let her know I am starved sexually even though our marriage is barely three months.
“What?!” she exclaimed, hands akimbo.
“Baby, our sex life need some spice” I held her close to my body and kissed her neck.
“We just got married and you have started cheating on me only to blame your shit on being sex starved?”

“Our first time, the shower sex and the one we did before you left for Abuja is all we have done since we got married two months ago” our faces were so close that we could see everything our eyes had in them.
“I was healing for a whole month, I have been away another week, what the f--k do you want me to do? Like everyday sex or what?” She pushed me backward and pouted. I held her by the waist and sat her down, I soon sat beside her and we stared at the door for a while. There was total silence, she dropped her head on my shoulder and wrapped one hand behind my back. I took the second hand and kissed it. When I was sure she’s relaxed, I spoke.

“The first and very important key in every relationship is communication, we need to talk baby” I listened for an answer but there was none so I proceeded.

“Am I not doing it right? It hurts when I do it with you?”

“No” she replied with a fading voice.
I rolled her over a d climb on top “So, what’s the problem? Are you stigmatized? You still have the rape registered someone in your head right? You need time to get over it? I would understand” I whispered, her lips parted slightly, I knew she wanted to say something but words failed her so I continued.
“Should I get you books?’ I asked and tears rolled than her eyes taking the corner of her eyes to her ears.

“Do you still love as much as you do before the rape?” she asked and I smiled.
“More baby, you are strong and beautiful. You fought and stayed alive for me even after that brutal rape, why should I love you less?” I kissed her forehead and I think I know the problem when it comes to physical sex but online sex, she was just been naive and I would sure put her through.
“I don’t look dirty to you? They were four” She cried this time making sounds with her mouth.
“You have been cleaned medically after the incidence and that’s the most important, whether four or hundred, you are here and fine” I whispered and she pulled my head forward as our lips engaged in a fierce fight.
“I would make it up to you” She whispered feeling guilty.

“I don’t have a girlfriend if that’s the reason for that guilty face you are pulling, you never pushed me into another woman’s warmth. It’s just you and you are more than enough” I smiled but she shook her head.
“So who have you been sneaking out to call?” she asked
“Ex f--k girl” I grinned and she frowned.
“You don’t have to understand, let go to bed” I pulled her up the bed and covered her up with the duvet while I went for a quick shower. When I return, she was naked and I found myself giggling.
“It raining, warm me up” she bite my ear.


*NEXT DAY*
I had to leave home early, she was still sleeping when I dashed out of the house. It was unusual for Beatrice to stay in bed till past 9am in the morning. She must have been exhausted from the night’s drama. I took Fiks shirt with me, I would drop it before going to the office.
When I got to his place, he was seeing off two ladies that passed the night at his place and I shook my head.
“Don’t kill yourself Fiks” I beat his shoulder immediately he returned to the sitting room.
“I didn’t invite them oo, I met them here yesterday night and I can’t let fine babes like that leave under the rain now so I covered them up” he said yawning.
“Cover them up? With what?” I winked
“Duvet now” he said spreading his hands.
“Duvet? Which of the duvet?” I chuckled
“I mean duvet, you know that duvet now ehn ehh” he replied and we both end up laughing loud.
“Ehn ehhhhh, what’s going on in your marriage?” he asked
“As in?”
“I picked her up by the road side yesterday, she was stranded and robbed. She said you were ignoring her calls”
“We have settled things” I quickly said, I wasn’t comfortable discussing my marriage with him. He looked at me and smiled.
“So you are now scared to discuss things with me? Anyways, she told me sex is causing havoc in your home, that lady is a rear gem ?, take perfect care of her” he said and I boiled again, what’s his business? He keep saying how good she’s, if he touch this one, he would know I can be crazy.

“Take your shirt” I threw the fancy nylon I was holding at him.
“Oh, but I told her to take it now” he said and I raised my eyebrows.
“She hasn’t worn mine it’s yours that that looks like bako bag she would start wearing? I said with a raised voice.


“Sorry ooo” he said.
“Come, I hope you didn’t touch that girl? I would tear you apart if you go close to her ooo” I warned with a strict voice.
“Nna ehn, bachelor don suffer. Somebody can’t help somebody friend’s wife? Na your house i carry am come now no be hotel” he said and I chuckled.
“Seems she’s still traumatized, she think i would treat her with contempt in the future concerning this rape issue, I don’t know how to make her see things clearly, I would never use it against her, I love her that much” I said smiling deep into the chair I was sitting.
“Travel” he said.
“Travel?” I leaned forward.
“You should have done this immediately after the rape, it would have been sorted from from the beginning, take her with you and see somewhere beautiful, she would cheer up and before you know it, she would be all over you” he said and i agreed, he was right.


“Let’s see owu water fall in kwara state then, it’s a beautiful sight” I said and he hissed.

“No, Just take her to Igbo nla, cook alot of ekuru for the spirits then take it there and dance with the spirits inside the bush. idiot!” he stood up and headed for the inner room and I wondered if I said something out of place.

“Fiks come now!” I called out but he wouldn’t come back.
I finally made up my mind to take her foreign..
